… (#9945) * MS Word: Remove unintended input help message on tab key script (#9943) * Fix re #9945 (comment) Turn the faulty docstring into a block comment rather than setting the `__doc__` attribute to `None`. * Fix up: Use the `@script` decorator and preserve the docstring * Fix up: Reduce diff, allowing for easier blaming and not linting historical comment
